Editing Video Using Transcoded HDV Footage

Editing video transcoded to the Apple Intermediate Codec or Apple ProRes 422 codec is the same as editing other formats in Final Cut Pro. However, you need to make sure your scratch disk supports the data rate. For more information about the data rates of these formats, see “HDV Format Specifications” on page 37 and “About the

Apple ProRes 422 Codec” on page 9.

Outputting HDV to Tape or Exporting to a QuickTime Movie

After you finish editing, you can output your movie to videotape using your camcorder or export your sequence to a QuickTime movie. If you want to output your movie back to tape, Final Cut Pro needs to reencode (or conform) the movie into MPEG-2 data before outputting. Depending on the length of your sequence, this process can be fairly time-consuming, because every frame in your sequence must be reencoded.

To output Apple Intermediate Codec or Apple ProRes 422 codec video to an HDV videotape:

1Make sure your HDV camcorder is properly connected to your computer and turned on before you open Final Cut Pro.

2Insert a DV tape into the HDV camcorder.

3Click anywhere in the Timeline or Canvas to make it the active window.

4Choose File > Print to Video (or press Control-M). The Print to Video dialog appears.

5If you want Final Cut Pro to start recording automatically, select the Automatically Start Recording checkbox.

6Select any leader or trailer elements you want to include on your tape, as well as start, end, and looping options.

A progress bar shows the progress of encoding from the codec back to MPEG-2 HDV and gives you a time estimate for when the encoding process will finish.

A dialog appears instructing you to press the record button on the camcorder.

7Press the record button on your camcorder, then click OK.

If you selected the Automatically Start Recording option, the camcorder automatically begins recording your program to tape.

The camcorder stops after the program is recorded to tape.

The Apple iPhone 6, released in September 2014, marked a significant evolution in Apple's smartphone lineup. This model introduced a larger screen and a sleeker design, setting the stage for future devices in the iPhone series.

One of the most notable features of the iPhone 6 was its display. With a 4.7-inch Retina HD screen, the iPhone 6 offered a resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels, delivering vibrant colors and sharp images. This screen size was a departure from previous models, appealing to users who favored larger displays for better viewing experiences, whether for gaming, watching videos, or browsing the web.

The design of the iPhone 6 was another highlight. It featured a slim, curved aluminum body that not only made it more aesthetically pleasing but also improved its ergonomics. Weighing just 129 grams, the phone was light yet robust. The placement of volume buttons, the power button, and the headphone jack was thoughtfully designed to enhance usability.

Under the hood, the iPhone 6 was powered by the A8 chip, a 64-bit dual-core processor that offered impressive performance and energy efficiency. Coupled with the M8 motion coprocessor, the device could effectively handle demanding apps and services while optimizing battery life, providing users with a smooth experience throughout the day.

The camera capabilities of the iPhone 6 were also advanced for its time. It featured an 8-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization and a f/2.2 aperture, allowing for clearer low-light photography. The front-facing camera was improved as well, offering a 1.2-megapixel resolution and support for 720p HD video, making it great for selfies and video calls.

Connectivity options included LTE support, enabling faster download speeds, and Wi-Fi calling, which allowed users to make calls over Wi-Fi networks, enhancing communication in areas with poor cellular coverage. The iPhone 6 also introduced the Apple Pay feature, allowing users to make secure transactions using their devices.

In terms of software, the iPhone 6 originally came with iOS 8, which boasted new features such as HealthKit and HomeKit, further integrating technology into daily life. Regular software updates ensured that users could enjoy the latest features and security enhancements well into the device's lifecycle.

Overall, the iPhone 6 distinguished itself with a combination of innovative design, powerful performance, and a user-friendly experience, solidifying Apple's position in the smartphone market and paving the way for future iterations in the iPhone lineup.
